We are delighted to recommend Sondra and Pam with complete confidence. They originally helped us locate and buy a home 5 years ago in Bethesda when we were relatively new to town. They did such a wonderful job that was no question about who would be our realtors when we sold that home and bought another this summer - also in Bethesda.
Pam and Sondra are extremely committed and conscientious pros.
Although we give Pam and Sondra 5 stars across the board, we would say that they particularly shine in both their responsiveness and in their management of the selling and buying process. Buying and selling a home in Maryland is difficult from a process and documentation point of view. They are extremely thorough and that made for a smooth and peaceful transition.

Sondra and Pam are an awesome team. They offered helpful advice, but they were also excellent listeners and observers. They got to know us and our style, they helped us navigate the (intense!) real estate market here, and they helped us find a home that was right for us and our family. We could not have asked for a better team, and we happily recommend them to others!

Sondra and Pam were exceptional in helping us with our recently purchased eastern shore cottage. They were outstanding with their attention to detail, negotiation skills and responsiveness throughout the entire process. They went above and beyond to make sure we were at ease with every detail and were extremely patient as we encountered some hiccups along the way. Sondra and Pam are true real estate professionals!

As a custom homebuilder, I have relied on Sondra and Pam to locate properties/land to build on and then in turn, market that home when it is complete. We have had a successful relationship for over 4 years with multiple homes sold. They always have every detail covered and are excellent communicators. True professionals and very knowledgeable of the market climate.

I was so impressed with my agent Sondra Mulheron. She had every detail covered from the moment we put an offer on the house to the day I closed. Her knowledge of the area and the surrounding houses for sale was exactly right. Sondra is a very hands on agent and nothing slid by her. I didn't have to worry about the contracts and contingencies as she had it all covered.
If I ever to choose to move and buy and another home I will ONLY do it without Sondra and Pam.

They are ever willing to accommodate your needs and have good patience in matching your needs. We are pleased with their outstanding service, energy level, passion, and responsiveness when we bought our home.

We purchased a new home and sold our existing home through Sondra and Pam. Over a period of many years, on and off, we toured homes with Sondra and Pam and throughout the entire period they stayed as focused and enthusiastic as the first time they toured us. We eventually found our perfect home and Sondra and Pam were able to negotiate an off market purchase before it hit the "streets". Now we owned two homes and had to sell our existing home. Sondra and Pam worked with us very closely to insure that our home showed as well as possible and that we not take it to market or show it until it was ready for prime-time. We followed their lead and professionalism and we sold the house on the first weekend and at a price that made my wife and I very happy (it was exactly as they had written it up in the playbook!). We would recommend Sondra and Pam to anyone thinking of either buying or selling a home.

My wife and I were very pleased with Sondra and Pam. They exceeded our expectations, were very responsive, and made us feel as comfortable as possible during a stressful time. We are moving to another town and the service provided by Sondra and Pam is night and day compared with our other realtor. I would recommend them very highly to anyone.
